Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0717223A1] A method of joining pipelines laid on the seabed, the diameter of a first pipeline (1) being at least several times greater than that of a second pipeline (2), through placement of a substantially continuous track of saddles (6,7) on the first pipeline, which saddles each lie against the outer surface of the first pipeline over at least part of the circumference thereof and over a certain length and which at their sides facing away from the first pipeline keep the second pipeline fixed relative to the first, using means present at this side which cooperate with the outer surface of the second pipeline, and a saddle for use in the above method.
